Posting the same link 4 times in 18 days, by the author, certainly seems like self-promo, but somehow allowed? I don't see any URL manipulation, and it certainly took off today. (I found it interesting!)
A&B testing of post names seems to lead some useful information ;)
I don't see your reference to "Georgetown students..." in either the website link or the user's submissions? Was it modified?
- bearsyankees 1y agoGlad you found it interesting, yeah I was experimenting with different names and obviously this one was the best. Not trying to self-promo as I am not like selling any product but just thought people would enjoy the article! Sorry if I violated any of the unwritten HN norms... but glad people are reading it now and having interesting discussions
